Sure there are many differences too, but despite that i had think it's a modernized NGE-like story. By modernized i mean it has some good and some bad traits of modern animes that NGE didn't have, or it had less of it. For example all that fanservice 
(i didn't read back all the 160 pages, so maybe someone else already mentioned this similarity) |
From what I remember Eva give some inspiration(see plugsuits), but that's all.
Cry baby, postapocaliptic world, strong girls etc. - is not rear. That's shounen for you.
GC is pretty low level anime anyway - too many clichés.
